Sueno De Mar: Beachfront Villa for 10

Host was very attentive and property was excellent for the 6 of us. Pool would have been better heated (as it was bit too cold to really enjoy) but other than that all great

Good location.

This was our 5th visit to Exuma in 4 years! To say we love this island would be an understatement. We have never stayed at the same place twice, mainly because we are trying to find our perfect location for potentially owning someday! Sueno Del Mar checked just about every single box for us. We had 7 and the layout was perfect. We love how the bedrooms are on the far sides of the house so the kids had a “wing” and the adults had their own, quiet rooms on the opposite side. The living and dining areas were wide open and superbly set up for hanging out and family meals. I’ve never sat on a more comfortable couch either!! Loved the wood-look tile floors and minimalistic design/decor. The home was pretty well maintained, and we never had any issue with the main living areas not having AC. We left the bedroom doors open with ceiling fans on during the day while we were out and it cooled the main part of the house with no issue. We were never home during the day, so we were completely unbothered by the lack of central AC. The bedrooms were always cool and super comfy. We loved having the dock to keep a rented boat, and the pool was just perfection after a long hot day in the harbor and beaches! The grill worked perfectly for us to grill burgers one night as well. I have no complaints, other than I wish the house were MINE! (seriously, if owners decide to sell, I want first right of refusal, we have been looking for years now!! Moriah Harbor is where we want to own )

This has been a dream property! The location is BEAUTIFUL and it truly has everything you need for a perfect stay. There is central air conditioning, plus every room has a mini split, so the house stayed nice and cool! The kitchen was well stocked with plates, utensils and cookware. There was a box of pool toys our kids really appreciated. The beach with kayaks and paddle boards was so enjoyable, plus we enjoyed the personal dock that we were able to keep our boat at for easy access. All 4 bedrooms had an en suite bathroom, so there was zero fighting over space. The outdoor seating area is incredible with both covered and uncovered seating areas. And the couple times we needed assistance, the property managers responded immediately and were so kind. 10 out of 10 would stay again!

We’ve been coming to Exuma 3-4 times a year for several years but never stayed this far south. Love the location! House was clean and very comfortable. Well appointed and great pool. Despite previous reviews about not having central air and being too warm that was not our experience. AC units were able to cool the entire house without an issue. Management was very accommodating and responsive. Great house. Highly recommend. Can’t wait to return.

There were a lot of good things about the house- it is very large, well laid out, there is a nice pool, management is VERY responsive and kind, and they tried to correct any issues we had. It would be good for a large group as there are enough bedrooms and bathrooms. The beds were comfortable, everything was clean. The biggest issue we had was that despite references to it in previous reviews, the house does NOT have central air conditioning. This was a must for me as I have multiple sclerosis and am heat sensitive, so it made our stay difficult (and I still have not recovered from the trip a month after our return). If we would have realized there was no central air, we would not have booked this house. There is air conditioning in the bedrooms that works well, so some people would probably be fine with the air situation. The other drawback for us was that the house next door is VERY close- so even though the people staying next to us were nice, we definitely felt like we were on vacation with them anytime we used the outdoor pool. The water in the house is not drinkable (very salty) and it did not seem to be filtered, my understanding from talking to locals and other Exuma regulars is that it is because it is very close to Little Exuma- maybe the water issue will be fixed in the future. The owners did provide bottles of water for us after we requested them.

We had a great week at your home!!! Very spacious layout! Very clean! Will def stay here again! The people overlooking the house were always super quick to respond when we had a question.

Wow! We were a little hesitant based on some previous reviews but knew we wanted this location so we went for it and we could not have been more pleased. The location is indeed PERFECT for exploring both via car and by boat. We booked a boat for the entire stay which I highly recommend. It was awesome to have both the beach here and the dock to keep the boat overnight. The beach was small but beautiful and there was some good snorkeling right in front of the house. Lots of fish and even a sea turtle one day! The house itself was very thoughtfully laid out and decorated. Plenty of open living space both inside and outside. The pool is excellent! There are great deck and sandy areas for kiddos to play. We cooked breakfast at home everyday and found the kitchen to be well stocked. Also plenty of beach towels, bath towels, linens, blankets, etc. All appliances worked well and it was really nice to have the washer and dryer for our beach towels every day. A/C was perfect. Management was responsive and very helpful. Really cannot think of anything I would change about this property. Can’t wait to return!

This was our second time in Exuma. We love the island! First time we stayed close at The Cut so we wanted to stay again in the area. Here are the few things that I believe this experience less than ideal. - House pictures don’t show the house next door. Beach is shared with them. It is not private as the listing implies/states - there is a pond in between the pool and the beach. That makes the patio be absolutely filled with mosquitoes and sand flies. - Out of the 7 nights, we had AC in our room 2 nights. First night didn’t work, second night the manager didn’t fix it just put gas in it that did it work, then they changed it, didn’t work again. Etc. The central AC can’t keep up with the heat outside. House was uncontrollably at 80F everyday towards the end of the day. It would cool off during the night again. - House is poorly stocked. As an example, we made Mac and Cheese for the kids and they had to eat it in coffee cups, the glassware is a joke. And forget to grill anything. The grill is in terrible shape and quite disgusting actually. - the house is pretty but there are a lot of details that add up. In our room the standing closet was a hazard, that thing was swinging from side to side with the slightest touch. That could fall on someone at anytime. In summary, I wouldn’t stay in this house again.

We enjoyed our stay at Sueno de Mar! It is the perfect location to have a boat at your private dock and enjoy the surrounding islands and cayes. The house has beautiful furnishings and beds were extremely comfortable. The house was spread out and great for entertaining. The AC kept the house nice and cool. The property manager was incredibly accessible and knowledgeable. Lott did an excellent job making us feel at home and gave us great pins of places to visit by boat. We will be back!
